I am doing the quest The History of Avabarg and during the quest Leothred says "Forthári’s youngest son was Frumgar, a boy of twelve, now Chieftain of the Ai-thúda. While still a youth, Frumgar became a hero of his people, befriending both the Longbeard Dwarves and the Wizards Gandalf the Grey and Barandil the Brown."
But there is only one brown wizard, and that is Radagast, and that is not one of his known names.
What gives?
I tried Googling, and cannot find an answer anywhere, only the quest, and all that does is quote the quest text.
Maybe a typo by MoL?
Unless that's an Elvish name for Radagast that they came up with ('Radagast' is Adunaic, apparently).Quote:

This isn't actually my quest series... but it's not a typo either! :DQuote:
